A month ago I scored an 08 limited grand cherokee, fully loaded, 4x4 low, nav, heated front/rear seats, moon roof, parking sensors with 76k miles for 13k. Put some new nitto Terra grappler g2 tires, full fluid change, 3" lift (suspension). FN LOVE this jeep. Went drifting with the wife and kid few weeks ago when we got 7" snow. Was super fun. 1st jeep ever.

BUT, the 5.7 hemis are notorious for having oil leak from the plug on rings into the plug sleeves. Need to change both valve cover and all plug o ring gaskets. 900 dealer fix or 600 small repair shop fix. My back 2 plug sleeves on both banks were full of oil as we're the plugs.

Fucking things are death traps, especially on the highway. Please consider another vehicle.

I've always wanted something nice and 4x4 but could never justify the cost to myself as a flat lander so after the move wanted something to go mudding with my brother on the weekend every now and then. Maybe will consider a truck instead will be more practical when the kids visit and for dailly driving. Or I'll just keep my sedan and get a bike for the twisty's we will see lol......
 
Fuck riding bikes on the street. Too many fuck-tards that can't drive or see tou. Once.you set foot...or rather rubber on a track, you'll never ride the street again.

Here's a sweet little video of me riding ccw (counter clockwise at my home track). The pros are only about 17 seconds faster than me and are on 150k+ bikes.

 
On board a 2007 Suzuki gsxr 600, about a 30k race bike. Fully dyno mapped, and on the fly adjustments. Ohlins forks (7000.00).

I'd gladly.give up growing to go back to racing. Had 2 very bad highsides at this track. Both I have no memory of.

My ass hauling days on two wheels are over. I feel fortunate to have survived them. Even remembering some of my near misses still gives me clammy hands.

It's more dangerous riding/driving on the streets vs racing on the track. Guaranteed.

...and you have no memories of the injuries to prove it!

LMAO

Seriously, riding a motorcycle at speed anywhere is an inherently dangerous activity.

I condone the use of race tracks to haul ass, but 'safer' is relative in this case.

The older I get, the more I appreciate the rolling cage sitting in my driveway!
 
There are NO idiot drivers on a race track. No grandmas, no texting assholes, no pot holes, no stop lights, nothing but you, your bike, a sweet ass course and orher bikers who have the same thing in mind. There is NO debris, oil, or other shit on the roadways. Racers arw classed by their skill level. Both crashed were operator error. Had I crashed on the streets, I'd be dead. Theirs ambulances at the tracks. None on the streets, or at least not with in 20 mins of the twisty back roads we used to run weekly.

I can go on and on and on. I put 15yrs of riding on the streets immediately behind me after 6 times at the track. I had more near misses on the streets in a day, than issues at the track. I've been sideswippee, ran I to curbs, cut off, hit from behind. But the streets are safer. LMAO

I was a car dealer manager for 20 years almost and jeep wranglers have every modern safety feature any American market car has.

They do have tons of mechanical problems traditionally though. But not a lot more than the grand Cherokee which is not built for real off road use.

Jeep wranglers were a lot of fun up at Tiger Road near Breckenridge.

You can unlock the front suspension and lock the front differential and climb most any rock.

Awesome Demon. I have a bit of history with fast cars and bikes.

I have swithched to riding trail bicycles when I still can. We have 1000's of miles of maintained trails in the woods here.

I keep wanting a new dirt bike though. I rode my friends Honda 450 and man I want to blast trails.

I miss my 30's In Colorado before my illness got bad.

4x4's, dirt bikes, atv's, snowboards. I miss adrenalin sports.
